Reviews
"Venue was great especially the view. We ordered two parmas but they tasted quite dry and microwaved. We were both quite let down, especially with a $30 price tag on each. Great place if you want a drink, but I wouldn't go back there for the food. :( Sorry for the honest review."
"Didn’t stay here, but visited the restaurant for a meal. Nice place, comfortable surroundings and meals came out quickly, but I think this was a little detrimental for my serve of House made Gnocchi. Wine definitely hit the spot on a cold evening and we had a good meal on the whole"
"Pork belly was rubbery and tough as old boots. Literally couldn't cut it with the knife. Booked a table but the patrons in the front bar had taken the seats prior to our arrival. Had to walk around the joint looking for extra stools. This place was had a great vibe 15 years ago but it's long gone now."
"A group of us regularly attend on a wednesday night for trivia. They have always been super good to us with our orders both for food and drink. The area they seat us in, suits us perfectly and it's always an enjoyable night for the entire team. The venue is a fantastic pub vibe downstairs and the staff have always been fantastic - probably why we go back week after week"
"We had our staff party at Murphy's recently and everything from service to location was amazing! The response time in regards to the booking side of things was a matter of hours and it took no more than two days to lock in the booking, especially on only a week's notice was amazing! The lads behind the bar were smiling all night and as hospitality workers ourselves, we really appreciated their amazing service and good laughs all night and of course their amazing cocktails. Would highly recommend this venue for any future events and we will be coming back for sure!"
